The first few days of vacation

A rare pic of Conner actually smiling!

Our carry on luggage for the flight.  Looks fun, right?

We flew into Ontario California on a late evening flight, stayed the night at my cousins house and then headed out in the morning for a 4.5 hour drive to Yuma.  We stopped at a rest stop along the way, just outside of San Diego and let the kids burn off some energy.  Of course, as soon as we hit grandma and grandpa's house, they were in the pool!  As were they every afternoon after!  Yesterday Mike and grandpa took the kids to a really cool play area by the Colorado river.  The kids LOVED it and we're looking forward to going again!

Of course, we're missing the 8 inches of snow at home, but we're loving the sunshine here in Arizona!

I'm lovin your new camera, I actually get to see pics of the kids! I'm glad you're having fun even though Mother Nature changed your plans.
